> Some users (want to) forget about regularly upgrading Guix System.
> There should be an unattended upgrades service.  Some requirements
> come to mind for its configuration:
>
> 1) Some users may want their unattended upgrades service to take care
> just of reconfiguring from a recent checkout and some may want it to
> take care of updating users’ ~/.config/guix/current and ~/guix-profile
> profiles.
>
> 2) Maybe there should be libnotify integration for unattended
> upgrades if the user uses a desktop environment.
>
> 3) Updates may fail if there is no internet connection.  Some users
> may *not* want upgrades on metered internet connections.  Some users
> may *not* want upgrades over untrusted connections.
>
> This report is a followup to Ludo’s proposal at
> <https://issues.guix.gnu.org/issue/36636> to add such a service and
> add it to %desktop-services, making it the default setting.  Such a
> change in defaults could be a bad surprise for some users and should
> not go unnoticed, I think.
